You can’t get concrete numbers on Madden sells. But using past data, Madden 18 lags. Also, if Madden was so successful you just don’t have this kind of turnover normally. My two cents.
Judging by the overall vibe on here, I'd have to say at the very least that they lost sales from the franchise crowd and unless they knock it out of the park with cfm improvements this year that trend will continue. Now whether or not they made up for that with MUT, I have no idea
